[quote author=Lifestone post=79433383]This is what to do. ICPC should have completed these investigation before going to press so as not to undermine their investigation. The truth is that most National legislators have regarded the contituency project as part of their personal allowance and the projects are largely not executed.[ /quote] They should conduct it at the same time cos phase 1 will give room for the others to bribe their way.

tactius: Thing is, if we all use cheat codes, we cheat the company out of income...which would lead to the company losing income...which would lead to the company closing shop in Nigeria...which would lead to massive job loses.
And it isn't just job losses for those working for MTN...it would be job loses for data resellers, scratch card salespeople, and so on.
And the impact on our economy would be harsh.
I know many people think MTN is ripping us off...but let's be frank, MTN is a business. Many of you who would quote me to insult me run businesses. You won't like it if people used your products for free.
MTN will take its business elsewhere...and Nigeria will suffer.
So, to the man who reported the leak....thank you. You are saving the jobs of millions of Nigerians. Carry go. Stealing is not good.
P.S...If you quote me to insult me and abuse me, I shall report you to the mods. Be polite in your responses please.
Your praise for the reporter is inappropriate without considering his motive for his actions which is because he doesn't have MTN SIM.
The leadership of the Abia State Police Command says it has arrested 15 police personnel under its command for allegedly extorting money from motorists and other members of the public.
The police officers, it was learned are standing orderly room trial at the command’s Headquarters in Umuahia, the state capital.
The Commissioner of Police in the state, CP Ene Okon who disclosed this in Aba said that the command would not shield any corrupt person within its workforce that is trying to tarnish its good image.
The CP who was reacting to the calls made by some traditional rulers during a Town Hall Meeting in Aba, asking him to call some of his extortionist officers to order, assured that the Nigeria Police does not shield anyone with criminal behavior.
Okon pointed out that the command is determined to get rid of bad eggs among its personnel, stressing that it was why it declared one Sergeant Collins Akpugo wanted for killing Mr. Christian Onuoha in Umuahia.
He further disclosed that a reward of N500, 000 will be given to whoever has information on his way about.
Okon who maintained that bail is free, however, urged the members of the public to resist the urge of giving money to any officers who tried to extort them, stressing that every citizen ought to know his right and stand on it.
“We are the only organization that when you err, we punish. All of you must have heard about a policeman that shot somebody and killed on the 4th of June in Afara Umuahia?
“After killing, he ran away and disappeared. We have declared him wanted and we have placed N500,000 on his head. Anybody that will give us Information on his arrest collects N500,000 cash from me,” the CP said.
Speaking on bribery and extortion by police officers, Okon said “It takes two to tangle. If you don’t give the police will not take. It starts with you. If you know that you’ve not done anything wrong, if you know that you’re operating your joint according to rules, if a policeman comes, you prove to him that you know you’re right.
“I don’t know that policeman that will not be afraid to even tell you to bring knowledge that you know your right. Insist that you know your right. Let me be very frank to you, I am not supporting police collecting any money.
“As I’m talking to you, I have 15 policemen in my cell. 7 were arrested here at Opobo Junction when I heard the information that they were collecting money. I sent out my monitoring unit and my monitoring unit went there and met them in the act and arrested them.
“I subjected them to investigation and we have completed the investigation and they’re undergoing ‘orderly room trials’. Let God be with them if they’ll escape. At the end of the day, they’ll turn to civilians and be giving money too and see how painful it is.
“I have a monitoring unit. We are not sleeping on it. I don’t like it, but you too must stop giving. If you don’t give, they’ll not take. Insist on your right. My phone number is here, call me, give me the information and see what will happen.”

Why can't u just lie low,invest in legit businesses and live within ur income for 5 years before flaunting...or flaunt abroad(Dubai businesses,resorts and the likes)...

Naturally flaunting is abomination. What you flaunt is creativity such as genius invention talents exceptional feat and accomplishments but definitely not money influenced lifestyle.

Look at the way he's attacking an effective method of preaching that has always been effective, right from the Old Testament and even done by Jesus and his Apostles in the New Testament
*Noah was a “herald of righteousness” ( 2 Peter 2:5 ). *Solomon addressed the entire nation of Israel “with a loud voice” ( 1 Kings 8:54-56 ). *Ezra called the people of Israel to repentance as they sat in the “open square” ( Ezra 10:9-14 ). *Ezra read the law of God and explained it to the people of Israel while standing before them ( Nehemiah 8:1-8 ). *Jeremiah stood at the gate of the Lord’s House and “proclaimed” the very words of God ( Jeremiah 7:1-3 ). *Jonah preached on the streets of Nineveh ( Jonah 3:1-5 ). *The prophets of old were hated by the people, because they heralded the word of God at the city gates ( Isaiah 5:29 ; Amos 5:10 ). *The first street preacher, the first to herald the good news in the open-air, was John the Baptist ( Matthew 3:1-2 ; Mark 1:4 ; Luke 3:3 ). *Jesus sat atop a hill and preached the greatest sermon ever preached in the open-air -- the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5-7). *Jesus’s disciples preached on the streets in many villages ( Luke 9:5-7 ). *Peter preached in the open-air at Solomon’s Portico, after healing the lame beggar ( Acts 3:11-26 ). Philip preached the gospel to large crowds on the streets of the city of Samaria ( Acts 8:6-8 ). *Paul preached the gospel to the entire city of Antioch. He was viciously heckled, yet all those whom God had appointed to be saved believed the gospel ( Acts 13:44-52 ). *Apollos boldly and publicly refuted the Jews and proclaimed Christ Jesus in Achaia ( Acts 18:27-28 ). *Paul stood before the judiciary of Athens, atop of Mars Hill, and preached to the men of Athens in the open-air ( Acts 17:22-34 ).

SIRTee15: Why should this even get to court... It makes no sense at all...
Naija police and the feminist are just too stupid. This is a case the DPO could have resolved with wisdom getting the truth from the lady. Yet pacifying her. The prosecutor didn't even know the basics in rape case hence it was just what was reported by the lady they took to court. If wasting court time and false claims to mislead the court is enact here just as in senator Adeleke and the acting IGP that the court awarded money to this lady will get the sense she discarded. Thanks to the Judge she gave a motherly judgement.
Davash222: We’re glorifying suicide these days. Back then, when one commit suicide, the corpse will be dumped at the evil forest. The family will do some sacrifices to appease the gods of the land.
Now, we always blame depression and even give them a befitting burial.
Who stop you from taking the role of gathering all suicide victims and take them to your evil Forest and perform the required sacrifices.
chinambusay: Cecilia Ibru, the former Managing Director of the defunct Oceanic Bank has for the first opened up on her ordeal in court and she disclosed that the Emir of Kano and former Central Bank Governor, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi persecuted her badly because he thought she wanted his job at the CBN.
The economic guru who disclosed that she got married before 20 and also had her son in January before her 20th birthday, revealed that her travails in court got her really depressed. Recounting her ordeal, Cecilia Ibru who stated that Sanusi persecuted her because he thought she wanted his job at the CBN said;
I won’t say betrayal, including (Lamido) Sanusi (the then Governor of the Central Bank) himself, but people that I thought would come and help me did not do so. However, God raised other people to help me. Back then when I was in office, if I was at home, you wouldn’t find a parking space in my compound; it was always filled with cars and people who wanted one favour or the other from the bank. But after that episode, everywhere became empty.
One day, a man came to visit me at home and when he was going, there were no security personnel or driver. So, he asked what happened to them and I said the bank had withdrawn all of them on the order of Sanusi. They withdrew everything. He said that wasn’t good. The man asked me what it would cost me to put in place some security measures and I said about N1m. He said I was a popular personality and I couldn’t go around without some form of protection. He paid that N1m every month until I went to London. And when I got there, I informed him I had travelled. I can’t forget that kind of a person, and guess what, he is a Muslim.
besti7: The Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission, NERC, has approached Nigerians not to pay for meter administration charge and the power bill if there is blackout for over about fourteen days.
NERC said that the Meter Asset Provider (MAP) guideline had halted the power Distribution Companies from gathering vitality and administration charges following two weeks of intensity blackout.
Rubbish after 2 Weeks.
Its executive, Prof. James Momoh, broke the news at the Abuja Electricity Distribution Company (AEDC) dispatch of the MAP in Abuja on Friday.
The General Manager, Finance and Management Services, Abudukadir Shetima, who spoke to the Chairman, said that with the MAP guideline, the meters must be introduced not later than ten days after installment.
As per him, should the DisCo will not supplant a failing meter following two days, the client isn’t relied upon to make any installment.
He said that NERC, DisCos and the clients have their due date to give the meters to the clients at the required time.
He said the guideline was structured in a way that views the shopper as the lord in the Nigeria Electricity Supply Industry (NESI) esteem chain.
The client, he stated, is relied upon to have the best administrations.
He included, “Due dates were given in the guideline to the DisCos, even the commission with the goal that we don’t defer, so the clients get the administration at the time that it is required.
“For example, if a meter is going to be introduced, it must be submitted inside ten days of making installment. There will be sanctions if that due date isn’t met.
“Number two, to guarantee there will be authorized, the MAP has been approached to give a bank execution ensure that will be called upon. So they will lose cash on the off chance that the delay in delivering the meters even by one day.
“Number two, if the meters get terrible, they will be supplanted by the MAP with no installment for the whole ten years time frame.
“If the meters don’t work they should be supplanted inside two days, on the off chance that they are not replaced inside two days, the client won’t make the month to month clients administration charge installment. That installment will be seized.
“Another piece of the guideline is that if there is a drawn-out blackout, and they are out of power for a considerable length of time, notwithstanding another measure that the commission is taking to address those sort of situations, the client won’t pay for the meter administration charge and won’t pay for the power if there is blackout for over about fourteen days.”
Posting the goal of the guideline, Momoh said the significant principal purpose is the evacuation of assessed charging to expel the discussions around it.
He included: “The clients are glad to make the installment. The second issue is income confirmation; happy clients will pay.
“Nigerians are eager to pay for the administrations they can get so that there will be income confirmation and that will affect the business all in all. Presently, the incomes in the business are not adequate to empower speculations and better administrations. Along these lines, it resembles an endless loop and this metering is expected to address that issue.”
Talking, the AEDC Managing Director, Engr. Ernest Mupwaya uncovered that through and through the organization has intended to meter the clients in its establishment regions with 900,000 meters.
He said that remembering that the clients would expand, the meter merchants would likewise provide food for their metering.
He stated: “On the whole, 900,000 traditions have been booked for metering in AEDC establishment territory in the main occurrence. Being a moving target, we know that the number may increment and as it does, the merchants will take them along.”
